Only kinda sorta free agent related but damn...

 

TB12 has taken a different approach. By not taking so much cap space, he's showing he cares about one thing, winning rings. That's why guys take smaller deals to be with him. It's about the whole, not the individual pieces. He makes 12m a year off endorsements to offset what he doesn't make in the NFL (Giselle does make bank though), and that makes winning a whole lot easier. You don't get big endorsement deals if you don't win. And winning is what he does. It's a smart business plan for him and the team. It worked with the Patriots, probably will work in Tampa too.

I'm not looking so much at what that says about Brady as what it does about Wilson.

I was also in a roundabout way. Wilson looks selfish, arrogant and is acting like a diva. Brady looks selfless, business like and is acting like he wants rings. Two completely different attitudes, and very different results because of it.

So that Dan Sileo guy is saying he was right about Cam deal when he said he was coming back on Feb 25th. No he is saying Jets have huge deal to get Wilson and trade Darnold. Also updated Texans are listening to offers says it’s Dolphins, Panthers, 49ers. I know I know he is garbage but something to talk about lol.

The time of year we play along...tell these guys, "OK, I'll bite"  I still say, "Do not fall asleep on Denver."   That is what I say.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
